Rumor: Burnout Freestyle was in development for Wii and DS
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors, Screenshots, Wii | 0 comments
Although the images above only show screenshots of what was allegedly Burnout Freestyle for DS, the game was supposedly in the works for the Wii as well. For one reason or another, Criterion stopped working on the project and the titles were cancelled.

Rumor: Dragon Quest X logo, information in next V-Jump
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 0 comments
The image above is rumored to have come from Japanese magazine V-Jump, although no one has been able to verify that the logo is official. Meanwhile, Eurogamer Portgual has reported that the magazine will be unveiling the title in their next issue. To be honest, I’m quite skeptical about both points, but I wouldn’t mind if I was wrong!
